Alarm at Unión: concern over injuries to Malcorra, Mosqueira and Vargas | OneFootball

The defeat to San Lorenzo not only left Unión worried about their performance and a second consecutive loss. Leonardo Madelón will also have to closely monitor the condition of three players who finished the match with physical issues: Ignacio Malcorra, Joaquín Mosqueira, and Lautaro Vargas.

The first two had to leave the field during the first half, while Vargas completed that period, although he suffered a physical problem in the final minutes and could not return for the second half.

After the match, Madelón explained that the situations were different. “Malcorra had a muscle injury. Mosqueira and Vargas suffered knocks,” the coach said.

The biggest concern is Malcorra, who felt discomfort in the back of one of his legs. The initial impression points to a possible muscle tear, although he will have to undergo the relevant tests to determine the diagnosis and recovery time.

There is also concern over Mosqueira’s situation. The midfielder took a hard blow to one of his knees and had to be substituted. The image of the player with ice on the affected area raised alarm bells, although there is still no definitive diagnosis and they will have to wait for the medical tests.

In Vargas’s case, the problem was also caused by a knock. The full-back finished the first half but could not continue in the second.

The next few hours will be important in determining the severity of each injury and whether any of the three will be available for Unión’s next match against Aldosivi. Madelón will have to wait for the test results before deciding on the team.
